Hello, and welcome to Work Your Passion, a podcast dedicated to creativity and passion. My guest for Episode 2 is a 23-year U.S. Navy Veteran and an award-winning fantasy and steampunk author. His imagination is a thing of dreams.

Mark Piggott has published more than five books over the last 12 years, beginning with his debut novel “Forever Avalon” in 2009. In 2021, he won two awards with the Firebird Book Awards, sponsored by Speakup Talk Radio: “The Outlander War,” book three in the Forever Avalon series, took second place in the Fantasy category, and “The Last Magus: A Clockwork Heart” won first place for Steampunk.

He recently signed with Revolution Press to publish “Corsair and the Sky Pirates,” a steampunk historical fiction book, and with Curious Corvid Publishing to publish a fantasy poetry novella.

He will be appearing at Katsucon, February 18-20 at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in National Harbor, Md. For tickets and information, call (301) 965-4000 or visit https://www.katsucon.org/.

If you can spare some love, consider leaving a tip. Proceeds from the Tip Jar this month will go toward feeding, sheltering, and TNR (trap, neuter, release) of the feral cat colony we care for. My special lady friend and I are passionate about taking care of these wonderful felines; we work with multiple non-profits to give them the best quality of life. Anything you can do to help is appreciated more than you know.
